Sinusitis Infection - Cure Permanently in Thana

Diagnosis for Sinusitis:

Your surgeon will recommend various pre-operative tests to have a clear understanding of your sinus infection. Some of the common diagnostic tests are mentioned below:

• Imaging tests: Your surgeon may recommend some imaging tests, such as CT Scan, and X-ray, to see the exact root cause of swelling, inflammation, and blockage.
• Allergy test: An allergy can also be a leading cause of a sinus infection. In this case, an allergy test proves helpful in determining if it is responsible for your nasal blockage.
• Nasal Endoscopy: Your surgeon will use a thin, flexible endoscopic fiber tool to detect the prime suspect of sinus infection such as nasal polyps, deviated nasal septum, tumors etc.
• Swab Test: In this case, the surgeon will take the nasal congestion discharge sample to determine whether it is a bacterial infection or viral.

Sinusitis Treatment- Medications or Self Care

The best treatment for sinusitis is always a combination of medication and self-care.

• Antibiotics: When a bacteria-causing infection occurs, antibiotics can be taken.
• Nasal Sprays: Use decongestant nasal sprays to open the blockage of sinus infections.
• Humidifier: Use a humidifier to keep the air moist and avoid air dryness to relieve nasal congestion.
• Water Steam: Take water steam through the mouth or nose to relieve nasal swelling, pain and inflammation.
• Drink plenty of water: It can make your mucus thin and relieve congestion.

Sinusitis Treatment- Surgical Method

When the medications stop working and infections become chronic, then surgery is the last resort for sinusitis.

FESS (Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery): This is a minimally invasive procedure and usually takes around 1 to 3 hours to complete.
